Simple CMD line to .bat file switch, help needed

[logandiana]

I am just learning some command line and need help with some syntax when switching to a .bat file.
A high level overview: I am using WinSCP to connect to an Amazon S3 bucket. Then I am copying a file into that bucket.

What currently works:
I open the CMD prompt and enter these lines one by one.

• "C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.com"
• 
  
• open savedS3
• 
  
• put "M:\FUTURE\Production\pricingfiles\testdownload.csv" TestUpload.xlsx
• 
  
• exit
• 
  
• exit

Now I want to create a batch file (.bat) to do the exact same thing, but apparently there are some syntax shifts between the two. The above dropped into a batch file doesn't work.
Any help?

As soon as you type "C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" you have launched the WinSCP program and are no longer in windows command line environment. "open" and "put" are WinSCP commands not windows batch file commands. You have to write a WinSCP script file and then use the batch file to launch WinSCP and load the script file. See this for a reasonably good explanation:

WinSCP is a free file manager for Windows supporting FTP, SFTP, S3 and WebDAV.
